RECORD OF A YEAR.
Chronology of the Tv(temonth
That is Just Pas

Mutterings Of War.

The year of our Lord 1886 has passel
away. All hail to its successor, 1887!
The record here presented has beconp
history. Its careful perusal will shcv
that the departed twelvemonth vii
count for more than naught when tie
larger records, that are possible only after
thelapse of time, are made up. Then tie
significance of many things now &C.
counted trivial will be apparent. Thin
many circumstances now thought impG-
tant will be found to be of small momelt.
The year was notable one in that he
lives of many men of mark went 'ut
during its reign.
The labor movement developed in new
and unlocked for directions.
The elections of November were full Of
surprises for men of all parties.
Across sea, England, after bng
period of indecision, finally made uphcr
mind in regard to the Irish question and
in December adopted strong corcive
measures.
Upon the continent Of Europe there
was continual agitation during the
whole year, which reached the maximum
when Alexander was deposed from Bull
garia's throne. Peace still prevals, but
war would not at any time be unex-
pected.
Disasters followed each other closely
tac whole world over. The earthquakes
in the Sandwich Islands, in Spain and in
America, and storms of unusual violence
at sea, were especially noteworthy
For details of all this, and much more,
the reader is referred to what follows.
